Healing the hurt; helping children work through racialized conflict

Early Risers - A podcast by Minnesota Public Radio - Wednesdays

Categories:

It sometimes happens that our loving and joyful young children say something terrible. They can hurt other children’s feelings. And sometimes these hurtful comments are racist. It causes confusion and emotional pain and, long term, it can cause real trauma.  How do we help young children work through these experiences? How do we help the child who has been hurt, the child who did the hurting and the bystanders who are impacted?Resources:Learning for Justice : https://www.learningforjustice.orgEmbrace race: https://www.embracerace.orgAnti-racist baby: https://www.ibramxkendi.com/antiracistbabyMy grandmothers’ hands: https://www.resmaa.com/aboutWhite fragility: https://www.robindiangelo.com/publications/National center for trauma support network https://www.nctsn.org
